Connie and Larry,
Sid called last night to inform me of your mom's death. I am so sorry and understand the pain associated with the loss of one's mother. They are irreplaceable. I will remember her as the quiet, soft-spoken, caring lady that she was. My thoughts and prayers will be with both of you and your families as you grieve. I hope that the memories you share of her will help make this sad time a little more bearable. I know she will be missed.

It's true, Mrs. Brown was one of the most beautiful ladies in Lexington; and her beauty was enhanced by her generosity and kindness. I am very sad to hear of her passing, and extend my deepest sympathy and love to her dear children and grandchildren.
